how much spending mpney do most people need?

<p>I’m trying to figure out a budget for next year. how much spending money do you need and will bring next year?</p>

<p>like 5 grand a month. In Atlanta, you need to have the money and the bling</p>

<p>^Hahaha, I think it’d be close to 5 grand a semester or even year…But I’m no expert</p>

<p>I’m trying to figure that out for D. I’m guessing bare minimum would be $10 per day so if you’re at school for roughly 100 days before winter break, $1000. The real number may be closer to $20/day or more.The school website talks about eagle dollars but I haven’t figured out yet if the places that take the card are the ones she will use, so I’ll probably load her up with a debit card too.</p>

<p>I read that the stipend for ROTC college students is $300 per month. I would think that is a good place to start, adjusting for location, needs and spending habits. My daughter will be in the northeast and will get $400 per month.</p>

<p>my parents give me $500 per semester-- for stuff like going out, eating out, shopping, concerts, etc. but i also use a lot of my own money.</p>

<p>My daughter costs $500 a month, if I am lucky. he is heavily involved in school activities and they cost. I am not complaining they are all good, just costly.</p>
